>>50430593There's pros and cons to them, as well as a DLC model
Third versions
>so far always an improvement over the base game>new content is baked into the world naturally as opposed to an obvious side area>story can focus on the third legend in the box trio>Gyms and other steps in progression can be revisited without losing your save from the base game>unfortunately requires buying another full-price game>typically makes the base game obsolete, begging the question of why even make it, or suspicions of cut contentDLC
>doesn't require buying a new game that's mostly similar>content is completely new and can be experienced right away, no starting a new game>does fuck over those rare stoic individuals who always wait for third versions >new content most likely delegated to a side area, which can be immersion breakingOverall, even as someone who always ends up preferring third versions, I think a DLC model is healthier for the consumer
